Lucky for us - and the movie - Gaga doesn’t do ingénue. The role is usually played as an ingénue looking for guidance in a world of male predators. Or maybe it’s time for him to find his purpose in helping Ally, a waitress who’s getting nowhere as a singer-songwriter. There are times when Jackson’s lyrics still get through to him, as in, “Maybe it’s time to let the old ways die.” Cooper’s performance is enhanced by his surprisingly credible singing. And Dave Chappelle scores as Noodles, a friend who worries that not even love can save the hard-livin’ musician’s soul. The musician’s depressive state has its roots in a turbulent childhood reflected in his contentious relationship with his older brother Bobby (Sam Elliott), who resents Jackson for co-opting his voice. His character, Jackson Maine, is a washed-up country rocker with a love of booze and lines of blow. Seamlessly integrating terrific original songs with a script he wrote with Eric Roth and Will Fetters, Cooper refashions his Star for a right-now generation tired of watching blunt truth give way to softball fantasy. By dumping the usual Hollywood bullshit for something that feels raw, scrappy and lived-in, Cooper and Gaga knock it out of the park. Though there’s no disguising the film’s dated origins, the actor-turned- director’s defiantly fresh approach allows A Star Is Born to emerge as a skyrocket of soul-stirring music, drama and heartbreak. The movie starts and you think, “Oh no, not again.” And then, boom: Cooper sneaks up and snaps you to attention. So why in hell did Bradley Cooper choose to make his debut as director with the third remake of A Star Is Born? What could he bring to the role of the self-destructive headliner living in the shadow of the protégée he loves? And why did he have Lady Gaga, going out on a limb in her first starring role, to follow in the footsteps of the legends who previously aced the role of the newbie: Barbra Streisand (1976), Judy Garland (1954) and Janet Gaynor (1937)? Talk about walking a tightrope without a net. It’s a tale as old as time, flattened and fatigued by constant repetition. “There were more things to develop in the ending of that version.”įor Isbell to take part in Cooper’s version (the fourth iteration of the story first told in 1937, then again in 1954), the ending “had to be handled correctly for me to want to be involved.One star soars the other crashes and burns. “You felt like they were just trying to get it over with,” Isbell said. His main gripe with that iteration was its ending, which (spoiler alert) shows Kristofferson’s character killed in a car accident after speeding dangerously fast. The Grammy Award–winning country singer was particularly hesitant because he wasn’t a fan of the 1976 version of the film, which features Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson. “At first I wasn’t into it because I said, uh, it’s a remake of A Star Is Born - we’ve got enough of those,” Isbell told BuzzFeed News.

When musician Jason Isbell was approached to write a song for the soundtrack to actor-director Bradley Cooper’s new remake of A Star Is Born, the veteran singer-songwriter had some reservations.
